The City of Manitowoc will be playing host to the Wisconsin Sand Sculpting Festival this summer.
This three-day event, which is being hosted by the Manitowoc Sunrise Rotary and Visit Manitowoc, kicks off on Friday, July 14th at Red Arrow Beach.
Ten competitive semi-pro sand sculptors will be on hand to construct their sculptures with an award ceremony scheduled for Sunday afternoon.
Throughout the weekend, attendees can watch and chat with competing sculptors in action, participate in hands-on amateur competitions, and watch sand sculpting demonstrations and speed sculpting shows.
In addition, there will be an entertainment tent featuring a variety of live performances, food trucks, cold drinks, and vendor booths.
Courtney Hansen, Visit Manitowoc’s Director of Tourism said she and her team are “So excited to bring thousands of people to our community to experience our beachfront and so much more for such a unique, family-friendly festival.”
